EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Puerto Rico: Beggar, 1941" takes us back to the streets of San Juan, Puerto Rico in December of that year. The lens of photographer Jack Delano captures a poignant moment in time as we witness a Puerto Rican woman begging for survival amidst the bustling cityscape. The image portrays a stark contrast between the poverty-stricken beggar and the well-dressed pedestrians passing by. With her cane resting beside her, she stands with resilience etched on her face, embodying both strength and vulnerability. Her worn-out clothes tell a story of struggle and hardship. Delano's composition skillfully frames this street scene, allowing us to glimpse into daily life during this era. The photograph serves as a reminder of the social inequalities that plagued Puerto Rico at that time. As part of his work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) under President Roosevelt's New Deal program, Delano aimed to document American life through photography. This particular image sheds light on the realities faced by marginalized communities in Latin America. In viewing this powerful photograph from Granger Art on Demand's collection, we are transported back to an important moment in history where compassion meets destitution. It serves as a visual testament to remind us about our shared responsibility towards those who continue to face poverty today.
